The Liberty, a Starwood Luxury Collection Hotel, Boston

Located at the foot of Beacon Hill, The Liberty, a Starwood Luxury Collection Hotel, Boston comprises a richly restored 1851 building (formerly the Charles Street Jail) and a new 16-story tower. Soaring 90 feet, the lobby was formerly the jail's atrium and features the original three-story arched windows and dramatic catwalks. The jail's former exercise yard is now a beautifully landscaped courtyard.

Opened in 2007, The Liberty is one block from both the Charles River Esplanade and Massachusetts General Hospital. A "T" public-transit stop is right outside the hotel.
